Profile:

Born in South Africa, Robin Smith moved to England in his teens in order to qualify to play international cricket. His brother Chris also represented England. A very able player of fast bowling, he has at times experienced difficulty against good spin bowling, failing in the Tests during the 1992-3 tour of India (although topping the 1st class averages). His best shot is the square cut, usually played with authority and force. A fixture in the England side for 8 years, his 40+ average and 9 Test hundreds (many made in the face of adversity) indicate a bat of the highest class. After dropping out of England reckoning following the 1996 World Cup, he has continued to score runs in domestic cricket. He has captained Hampshire with considerable success, and retains his position as one of the most liked and respected cricketers on the county circuit. Thanks :: John Hall, John Macdonald
